"We're pleased to have a deal that recognizes the value of the members work," said Tullio DiPonti, Local 2458 Secretary-Treasurer. "We appreciate the support that we received from the public during this job action. Now that we have a resolution, the members are looking forward to once again delivering high quality service to patients in the Windsor community."

The workers voted 81 per cent in favour of a new three year contract that includes wage increases, improved benefits, and increased vacation.

"I'm very proud of what was achieved by the bargaining committee," said Katha Fortier, Unifor Assistant to the National President. "This agreement is a start to addressing the disparity between the public and private sectors in Ontario's health care system."
